Sisu’s white news – dedicated to Annemarie

Terve! Hello! Horrido and happy birthday to you, dear Annemarie! I always read your bulletines in the Knuipe and I just love them! You are a very talented writer!

Here’s a card from me and a girl whose name begins with the letter ‘Q’ – maybe you can guess who she is? Of course, the card is also from your friends Mervi, Vesa, Mimmi and Nalle.

Even Britta-Gudrun has made a lovely card for you with many of our ‘house cats’. 🙂

Now the snow has come to Ranua and we can say the Winter season has began! Do I have to tell you that mama and I are more than happy!

Aren’t the snow flowers beautiful?

Even the works of art look a bit different now.

I’ve tried to keep my fur white and fluffy so it will match the snow. You must admit I’ve made a good job!

The big ball is a nice toy in the water but this string of big pearls is a perfect Winter toy.

Oh bear, do I like it!!

I wish you could be here enjoying the crispy early Winter weather with mama and me!

Of course, I even hope that a certain polar bear girl would be here with me. I don’t reveal whom I mean …. but, OK, I can reveal that her name begins with the letter ‘Q’. 🙂

It’s really wonderful to feel the snow under my back and paws again.

It’s rather quiet here now that our neighbours the brownies Malla and Jemma are Winter napping.

I wouldn’t dream of taking long naps now! This season is simply too wonderful and I’m going to enjoy every second of it!

I just hope it will be snowing more although I’m very happy about the white stuff even now.

I’m already dreaming of all the funny things I can do when we get more snow. Rolling in the snow, the somersaults downhill, digging caves with mama, figure skating on the ice ….. What a great Winter it will be!

Of course, I want you to meet some other animals that are enjoying this season.

Mr Wolf likes to take walkabouts in his big enclosure.

I don’t understand the song ‘Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf’. I mean this wolfie looks ever so kind and friendly!

Did you know that wolverines are experts finding people under snow heaps after an avalanche? Well, this fellow doesn’t have to rescue anybody. He can just have fun.

The beaver went treasure hunting ….

…. and look what a funny looking carrot he found! 🙂

Max the Muskie has a thick coat to keep him warm.

These small piggies were born much later than usual but they’re doing fine and don’t seem to mind the rather cold weather. I like their pyjamas! 🙂

Our snow owl seems to be a non-stop-smiler! 🙂

That was all this time! I hope I can show you more snow in my next newsletter. Have a pleasant late Autumn/early Winter time!

Liebe Annemarie!
Ich wünsche Dir einen besonders schönen Tag heute!
Dear Mervi!
There is cold in Ranua. The pictures of Sisu with the balls remember me on the times as Knut played with the same toy.
Sisu is a wonderful boy. I think he enjoys the winter 🙂
Hugs

Dear Mervi and Marko!
Thank you for this athmospheric birthday tribute for Annemarie.

So winter has arrived in Ranua.
These are beautiful pics of Sisu and the other animals in the Ranua Zoo.
It´s always a pleasure to see this playful and good tempered bear boy, all the more when he enjoys his favourite season to the fullest.
I loved the photos of Sisu´s neighbours too, especially the beaver and the snow owl enchanted me.

I wish the staff and all animals in the Ranua Zoo a wonderful wintertime!

liebe Annemarie,
herzlichen Glückwunsch zu Deinem Geburtstag, alles Liebe und Gute für Dein neues Lebensjahr, Onkel Sergej, Raspi und Ludwig werden Dich sicher am Sonntag überraschen, bei einer kleinen Nachfeier.

Dear Annemarie A late Happy Birthday from me. I was not online yesterday.
Dear Mervi and Marko
I am delighted to see the snow in Ranua, where it is helpful to the residents, rather than at Heathrow where it brings everything to a halt.
Maybe Munich are reading KWM and thinking that Sisu and Quintana would be nice pair.
